Magickal Monday - Let's take it back a step

Magickal Monday

          I have decided to back up a little to simplify my Magickal Monday posts. I am going to take it back to a simple spread using whichever deck takes my fancy that day. I may change up spreads depending on my mood as well. Then I will share what is going on with me magickally and anything I found in the past week that makes me happy. Sound good? I hope so, because I am doing it. So, here we go... 

Weekly Spread
3 Card - Head, Heart, Spirit


Head - 7 of Cups: Using your imagination. Daydreaming. Living in fantasies. Take warning though, not to get lost in your own world. Don't just think, Act! 

Heart - 0 The Fool: The beginning of an adventure. Potential. Taking a chance. Risk. Abandon fear and grab life by the horns. 

Spirit - X Wheel of Fortune: Fortune. Chance. Unplanned events. Fate, Destiny. Good Luck. Reaching a turning point. 

Well, that is a pretty promising outlook for the week. I will think upon this and move forward. There is a lot here about creativity and about taking a chance, maybe it is time to get some things started. 

Magickal Monday: Reflections, Thoughts and Ephemera

      This week found me introduced to a new witchy youtuber, Molly Roberts of Her Speak . She has an amazing style, and I am kind of in love with her right this moment. <3 about="" absolutely="" also="" an="" are="" art="" be="" being="" bought="" but="" check="" ebook="" has="" haven="" her="" i="" if="" it="" nbsp="" out.="" p="" she="" should="" soon.="" t="" unfamiliar="" will="" witch="" with="" yet="" you="">

      Yesterday I headed to Newark, my hometown, to the shop of my lovely friend, Heather, to take a class on spinning with a drop spindle. Violet Flame Gifts  is a lovely in home metaphysical shop that Heather started many years ago. Heather is also the Tribe Mother of the Earth Warriors Festival. I went down early to shop before class started. I bought Storm Faerywolf's new book Betwixt and Between, a beautiful piece of Apatite, A Dorothy Morrison Wishin' Mojo candle, some of Heather's soap, lavender oil, and a couple of charm candles. 





       I got a couple of lovely drop spindles for taking the class, as well as a bag of roving to get me started. I would love to be able to pick this up for both magickal working and for Viking reenactments. I did okay, but I am going to keep working at it. It is certainly fun to do, if a little frustrating. 



      I have recently begun a new business venture, I am selling adult toys for a company called Sweet Toy Delights. I am not going to post a lot about that here, but if you are interested or curious you can check out my shop www.sweettoydelights.com/alphabetsy. 

I hope you have an amazing week. 

Blessings.

Practical Magic and my very first Giveaway

"For more than two hundred years, the Owens women have been blamed for everything that has gone wrong in town." ~ Alice Hoffman, Practical Magic In preparation for this blog party I decided to reread the book Practical Magic  by Alice Hoffman. I remembered loving the book because the magic that they described was so much more natural than "supernatural". It always seemed so much more real to me. Everything was more subtle and I could relate to these beautiful, strong women.  Reading the book anew I fell in love all over again. The aunts eclectic nature, taking in their nieces even though they never married or had children. The black cats haunting their home. The late night visitors. The orphans who grow into two different, but very similar women. Sally's beautiful daughters who have their own problems with the Owens name. The men who fall into the women's lives. Jimmy the corpse.  The book is so beautiful that, even tho...

I decided once again this year to join Vanessa from A Fanciful Twist in a Halloween Party in blogland. This year though I decided to have an actual Halloween party and post the photos from that. So welcome to my party. Grab a butterbeer ( Killian's Irish red with a shot of butterscotch shnapps) and enjoy. Welcome to our home.  A barrage of bats on our stairway wall.  Your illustrious host.
